Expanding God’s Kingdom

Expanding God’s Kingdom
This morning I asked the Lord, “Why do you want me to always forgive?
Is it because You want me to be a good person?”
This is what I heard in my heart:
“Every time you forgive, you open the door for My kingdom
to come in and be expanded on earth.”
I realized that our calling is not about us,
it is about His kingdom being established and
expanded on earth as it is in heaven.
Our focus should not be on establishing our own kingdoms and ministries.
Every kingdom but His kingdom is subject to failure.
We don’t want to promote ourselves with our gifts, we want to preach Jesus.
We don’t want to expand our kingdoms; we want to expand God’s kingdom.
May we all build and establish His kingdom
through love, forgiveness, healing, deliverance, encouragement,
peace, joy, laughter, giving, prayer, intercession, etc.
When the body of Christ concentrates on building His kingdom,
we will be filled with joy when we hear that someone else is
successful in ministry, whether it is a church, home group, outreach, or
healing ministry.
Our goal is to manifest His kingdom and heal people,
no matter whom it manifests through.
If you are a musician, you will be happy if
someone else makes a very anointed CD.
If you are a preacher, you will be happy if someone
preaches an anointed sermon, because the kingdom of our
Father was manifested or expanded through their preaching.
If someone gets healed or is raised from
the dead through someone else’s prayer,
you will still be happy that the kingdom of our Father touched the earth.
We should not be jealous when God moves through others.
The world is in desperate need of the establishment of God’s kingdom.
Let us answer the call.
We can’t do it alone; we need to do it together.
Let us build His kingdom.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven
(Matthew 6:10 AMP).
The King wants to expand His kingdom.

From Getting to Giving

From Getting to Giving I had a meeting with a minister today and it was very hard for me. When I got back home, I asked the Lord to tell me the reason. I felt He said that I went to the meeting to receive, not to give. I went to the meeting to get some possible connection for future ministry. May the Lord change our attitude from getting to giving . Selfishness will creep in on us and jump on our shoulders. No matter what we do, if we do it to gain something, we will never be satisfied. Most of our giving is conditional, and conditional acts open the door for our old nature to kick in. Unconditional acts open the door for our new nature to come in. When our new nature rules, there is peace and comfort in the Spirit. But when our old nature rules, there is agony and discomfort. May we allow the Spirit of God to come out of us through our unconditional acts and thoughts. From Kamran Yaraei’s Book “Food For The Heart”.

He Comes to Kill

He Comes to Kill When facing a thief with a gun in our houses or workplaces, we think that if we give him all of our money, then he will leave us alone and let us live. Sometimes we have the same mindset when we meet Jesus. We believe that if we give everything we have to the Lord, and serve Him well, then He might just let us live. But the point is this: The Lord doesn’t come to steal, but to kill. He is not after our possessions, He is after our flesh—our old, sinful nature. The Lord will use all of our daily struggles to kill our flesh. Our good works and giving will not stop Him from doing this. “Whoever seeks to keep his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it” (Luke 17:33). It is very important to know that as we get closer to the Lord, we get closer to the death of our flesh. This should be great news to us. He wants us to get close enough that He can kill our old nature, which is thoroughly described in Galatians 5:19-20: Now the works of the flesh are ev...
